Abstract

3GPP LTE (Third Generation Partnership Project – Long Term Evolution) cellular system first studies started in 2004. The system was designed initially for public voice and data services. Its scope has enlarged later on, to encompass public safety services and Machine-Type Communications (MTC). It targets now vehicular domain (V2X). In parallel, studies for the next generation system, a.k.a 5G, have started recently in 3GPP. This next generation aims at including from its very beginning, requirements for broadband public access services, Internet of Things (IoT) and vertical sectors, the latter ranging from vehicular services to factory automation needs. In Europe, several initiatives are on-going at International Railway Union (UIC), European Railway Agency (ERA) and ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) to prepare the next train radio telecommunication system that would fit rail community requirements in replacement of GSM-R (Global System for Mobile communications - Railways). Evolutions of 3GPP LTE are candidates, but 5G could jump in the list. This paper aims at providing an overview of current 3GPP status and roadmap toward 5G, and its level of compatibility with next train radio telecommunication system.
